The Bull Terrier showed really well. Too bad the pug picked this day to decide he didn't like the BIS judge, oops!
I'm one of those that thinks this breed is ugly but I have to admit one of the neatest dogs I've ever known was a Bull Terrier. He was owned by a farrier and taught himself to be a farriers helper. Cool dog.
Bull Terriers in general are an ugly breed, but that was a spectacular Bull Terrier! I liked the pug on Mon. night, but he did not show well in BIS. THe Deerhound was downright ugly.
My favorites were the Golden (of course), the OE Sheepdog, the Dalmatian, and the Bull Terrier. I guess one out of four ain't bad.
I am simply amazed that the Golden got anything last night! They have been ignored at these shows for so long, I don't believe that I have ever seen one even win group, let alone BIS. I don't think one has won Wesminister since the 20s, or 30s.
My husband, Max, and I were rooting for the Golden, along with the crowd at the show, but it just wasn't enough. And, of course, we're prejudiced toward Goldens.
All in all, however, I think that the collection of dogs in this show was simply spectacular. It certainly would be hard to pick ne over another.
